Welcome Daniel

Hi there Daniel. Welcome to Misplaced Pages, its always good to see new users. When you get a chance, drop us a note at Misplaced Pages:New user log to introduce yourself! You might also like to put a short introduction on your user page so that other wikipedians can get to know you. Welcome, it's a bit late but neverthe less. Oh and see my comments below.

You can sign your name on talk pages by using " ~~~ " for your username and " ~~~~ " for your username and a timestamp.. Signing your name is important on talk pages because it helps people get in touch with you. Also remember to indent each of your comments using : so that other users can follow the flow of discussions

As well as editing wikipedia you could also think about taking part in many other essential activities that make wikipedia a friendly place. For example you could welcome new users to wikipedia (for this you are could use my welcome templates here) or you could try mediating discussions between other users. There are loads of other options at the Misplaced Pages:Community Portal. Some links to get you started in the community:
  • The new users Welcome page is a good place to start.

If you have any questions or just want to chat then leave a message on my talk page and I'll answer as soon as possible. Happy editing, Tmorton166 (Errant Emote) talk 19:06, 25 May 2006 (UTC)


This personalised welcome message was created to follow my own policy on welcoming users. I hope that many others will adopt these common sense ideas. Add your support here


Controversies article & some other suggestions

I just wanted to say that I really welcomed you additions / cleanup of the article on controversies. When I nominated it for deletion I figured that no-one would step forward and improve it enough for me to change my mind, so thanks for that.

So when i came here to say thanks I saw you hadn't been welcomed yet so theres my little notice above to say hi and welcome to wikipedia.

Oh and also RE: your edits, when you make edits it's a good idea to try and stick a little comment in the text box below the edit window to tell everyone what you are adding / changing. It just helps to keep other editors in the loop :D, see my contributions list for an example, oooh vanity ;). Oh and also you might want to try and consolidate your edits down to one main edit for adding content then a few others for corrections / additions afterwards. Stick a note like {{ Inusefor|30 minutes to add new content }} which leaves the note below on the page and stops other users from changing the page whilst you are editing:

This user talk page is actively undergoing a major edit for 30 minutes to to add new content. To help avoid edit conflicts, please do not edit this page while this message is displayed.
This page was last edited at 23:55, 7 July 2006 (UTC) (18 years ago) – this estimate is cached, update. Please remove this template if this page hasn't been edited for a significant time. If you are the editor who added this template, please be sure to remove it or replace it with {{Under construction}} between editing sessions.

Remember you can hit the 'preview' button to see what your changes will look like too - rather than saving the page each time. This helps make the history of the article look alot cleaner and means more users edits can fit on one page :D

Not a rant by the way just some handy tips!! Have fun -- Tmorton166 (Errant Emote) 13:54, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for the welcome, and for the tip about the 30mins template. I hope to end up having a home-page at some stage, however at the moment the contraversies article is taking up a lot of my wiki-time :P
Thanks for all your support, and hopefully we can brush off that controversies article in a NPOV way :D --Killfest2 07:54, 29 June 2006 (UTC)


Poundland

Hey, looks good. I might find time to sort out some of those locations tonight. To be completely honest I'd half forgotten obout the list so thanks for the reminder :P -- Tmorton166 (Errant Emote) 18:14, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

No problems. By the way, how do you add a contents box? --Killfest2 07:31, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
easy just add __TOC__ to the page, it appears anyway if there are more than 3 sections. -- Tmorton166 (Errant Emote) 13:38, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

CSA - Images

Visit this page to see some funny photo-shopped images from the AUS v ITA World Cup 2006 game. Oh, and CSA stands for Community Service Announcement... and yes, this was just so I could get a contents box... and yes, this post is now finished. --Killfest2 11:04, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

As per Misplaced Pages's policy on fair use images (number 9), copyrighted logos such as Image: World Cup 2006 logo.png are not allowed on userboxes. Thanks. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 03:22, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Making my own logo replica of the WC 2006 one isn't illegal, is it? --Killfest2 03:36, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

2006 FIFA World Cup controversies

Don't forget to give the 2006 FIFA World Cup controversies article some love! MyNameIsNotBob 10:16, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

OK...I'll begin to love it again...want me to continue your sourcing thingy? --Killfest2 10:27, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
Try to neutralise the article a little as well. I've been using news.google.com to find a reference for each of the facts before putting it in in a factual, as it goes way. Just take a look at how I've transformed any of the sections as an example. MyNameIsNotBob 10:49, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

World Cup Controversies

A Barnstar! The Working Man's Barnstar
Just took another look at the World Cup Controversies page and it's history and I reckon you deserve a barnstar for all the work you've done to make it a much better article - I certainly wouldn't list it for AFD now!! Keep it up!  Tmorton166 (Errant Emote) 09:34, 6 July 2006 (UTC)


By the way I am especially impressed that you managed to keep NPOV (or refused to edit) the australian bits - especially considering the errrr slightly unfair situations your team suffered :D -- Tmorton166 (Errant Emote) 09:35, 6 July 2006 (UTC)


Wow, thanks, that was unexpected...my first barnstar *does a little jig* Anyways, there's more still to come with that article, so keep a lookt. And the way I kept NPOV with the Socceroos incidents was read the international media, see what they were saying, then form my opinion on the incident - much more reliable than patriotic Australian media reporting.
Thanks again! --Killfest2 12:49, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Żagań

Hello, Daniel. Can you wirte an article about my city (Żagań) on icelandic Misplaced Pages? Kondzio1990 09:30, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Put on my to-do list. --Killfest2 11:30, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
Translated it successfully (only took me about 15 minutes), but I'll expand on the article later. To see what I did, check out the link on my user page. --Killfest2 12:48, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

A big thank you

Dear Daniel,

Just thought I'd pop by to say a "BIG THANK YOU" for the barnstar. I really don't feel ready for that yet, there is so much still to be done. Hopefully over the next few weeks (after France win the cup) we can transform the article into something totally amazing.

Regards, MyNameIsNotBob 10:15, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

p.s. Here's for the Socceroos winning the Asian Cup!!! And the Matildas too!

You're welcome - you certainly deserve it. Go the Socceroos! --Killfest2 11:29, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Vandalism at Football

Hi Daniel. It seems you made a mistake and replaced the vandalism that Tawkerbot4 had removed. I've reverted back again. JPD (talk) 11:24, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Apologies, that must have been a double-edit with the IP changing 2006 to 2007. Sorry about that. --Killfest2 11:26, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for reverting my user and talk pages. I've already reported the IP at Misplaced Pages:AIAV Stephenb (Talk) 12:12, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

You're welcome. --Killfest2 12:16, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for reverting my user page

I was a cocksucker for less than a minute there, and didn't even have time to notice it before you took care of it. I just can't keep up with myself, apparently... Anyway, thanks! -- Captain Disdain 15:26, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Good to see someone has a sense of humour around here - no problems --Killfest2 23:55, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
